| Research Abstract |
I constructed the dark-field microscopy combined with an optical trap for the single molecule measurements. Using this apparatus, I succeeded in both direct observation of Brownian search process in the stepping motion of bio nano-motor, myosin-V and mechanical control of the process. Dwell time analysis, noise analysis for the Brownian process and the load dependency enabled us to model bio nano-motor from a viewpoint of the roll of thermal noise in mechanical function. This is an important result toward control of nano-machine using noise such as stochastic resonance.
